Sorrt to laugh Greenval but that sounds so funny.I have visions of scooby doo type ghosts wandering across the lounge. She probably wondered what the heck was happening. I have a tendency to throw the washing down the stairs and shoes etc up the stairs when tidying. Saves all the running up and down. I once hit my cocker spaniel on the head with a clothes brush because he was sitting at the top of the stairs and I didnt look before throwing.

Hi all
Hugs to those feeling poorly.
Max is so much better you really wouldn't know she'd had a stroke. Mind you I feel awful as I probably almost gave her a heart attack the other morning. She's taken to lying at the bottom of the stairs which never used to be a favourite place. Anyway, I came up here and stripped the bed and without thinking chucked the bedding downstairs (the stairs are steep and I'm to wobbly to carry stuff up and down). I glanced down to see my bedding seeming to slink off across the Lounge on it's own . It had landed on the poor dog:eek::eek::eek:
She seemed none the worse for being caught by low flying bedding:j
but I won't have to do that again:o

I had to laugh too...so funny! :rotfl: My dog just stands there when anythings lands on her as she is expecting to get towelled down and then have a play!!

One of my dad's dogs used to sleep at the bottom of the stairs during the night. Not sure who got more of a fright when folks upstairs needed to get to the loo (downstairs) !! It's a big stride to get over a large golden retriever, especially when you are half asleep!!

We've had sleet and hail today, so my washing needed another spin before going onto the airer.

Off to do some sewing now...Xmas pressies need to be finished!

I've made tea, the best phrase for this delight is minging.

Keiss - hope it works out, its sounding good. There's definitely still money around, if you're going to the right places - heard of someone yesterday on a 4 day trip to Lapland to see Santa :eek:

Morning kc, it got better (tea) I tried to improvise gravy - it did not go well, I ended up going to co-op buying what I needed and got mulled wine from there for our womble Xmas party (can claim back) and used my 3/off 30 spend voucher. (gravy for free )

Half day work today, meetings and polytunnel course tonight.

Hope you're all good. Got get ready and then skoot. Had a long reply written out but got sucked into making cards and labels from old Xmas cards last night (free, woo hoo) catch you all properly in a bit.

I have now thank you KC.

Oh greenval I laughed too. Poor Max. I throw washing down the stairs too. Our first house had really steep stairs so it's a habit I developed from there.

Oh dear minging tea is not nice Pippi. Glad you saved it.

How is everyone on this horrible wednesday?

Pippilongstocking

Hey up lovies

Hope you're all well

Its my day off and thus far work has haemoraged into it - been up and doing paper work for over an hour (bid to get in )
Bank needs checked
I've to be out for 10.30 - hairdresser at 12 (EEEK)
A bit to do in town
A bit more paperwork to do
And 20 christmas crackers to make - thank goodness we keep all our loo roll innards eh?
Punch to make
A bit cooking to do for party tomorrow...................
And no doubt more things but I'm half a sleep
Hens fed
Eggs to collect

But first bank to do


Oh, and big excitement I just remembered I need to write an invoice - my frist womble invoice - how exciting!

Pippilongstocking

I've got 4p in one of my banks - how utterly silly is that? 4p left of an overdraft (but I'm not over it!) L/d - cc in that bank (lucifer) 967 (33 left) - need move money into that account

Fatcontroller looking a tad better wtfc in the bank and pay from the local college £8.25 (?) no idea what delightful service I performed to get paid that (I've not put a bill in yet for the stuff I've done last month) £274 in the bank but dd's to go out therefore thats a bit tight too

Oh well - won't freeze or starve. Need get timesheet in for the college (40 hours) and get my invoice written for womble land yay!

Morning Everyone

Busy day for you again Pippi. Hope you are settling into your new routine bit more difficult at Christmas because of all the extra stuff going on.

Was staying in today as having package delivered; ds christmas pressie some piece of equipment to do with guitar playing, but it has just arrived so I could pop out later if I needed to.

Although I do have a lot of work to catch up with so really I need to be more disciplined and "JUST GET IT DONE":eek:

So far all I have done is check banks and diddle around on here.:o

Had the disgusting coughity cough thing thats been going around so not getting cracking that well in the morning coz of lack of sleep, still kipping in dd's room so I don't keep dh awake as he has a long week

So I am now going to go an revamp my list and then go for a soak in the bath
